4 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON TAURSDAY THE EVENING STAR bas the fullest Local Circulation of any Newspaper inthe World, and Advertising Medium is worth more than all the other papers published in Ww President Roberts in the interview printed Yesterday in Tar Stan suggests « willingness on the part of the Pennsylvania railroad com- pany to meet one-half the cost of sinking and bridging or of elevating the company's tracks in Washington. He states that the company has the right under its charter to run tracks on the surface of the streets, and intimates that no improvement can be accomplished except with the company’s assent and upon the com- Pany’s terms. The act of Feb. 5, 1867, in giving the road gratuitous right of way over the pub- lit streets provides that “the level of said road within the city shall conform to the present gradation of the streets, unless Congress shall authorize a different level,” and Congress has also the right to repeal or amend the entire grant Evidently Congress has the power to authorize a different level for the road or to remove it entirely from the streets which it now occupies, and if the road has any claim for damages it will be merely an equitable one against the United States government. Sena- tor Morrill said once in the Senate after de- scribing the road's infractions of its charter and ite trespasses upon public pro perty: “The proof of these flagrant abuses is so abounding as to show that the Baltimore and Potomac Railroad Company has wilfully broken its so-called charter and would justify its for- feiture under the most summary process by the courts; but full power having been espe- cially reserved to alter or amend it is incon- testable that the road is now as amenable to the discretion of Congress as it would be if now for the first time it were asking permission to enter the District.” Congress granted something to the road with notice that it might revoke or modify the grant at any time, and no legal damages can be claimed for such modification in pursuance of a condition of the grant. Washington, however, is well aware that Congress is not likely to make full use of its power, merely at the request of the District, to compel the road to do what the latter strongly resists,and that practicaily there isa basis for Mr. Roberts’ claim that terms must be made with the railroad. In conduct- ing this negotiation witn the road Congress is the capital's common council and board of aldermen, whose duty itis as the representa- tive of the city to drive the best bargain which can be obtained for it. Mr. Roberts does not propose to surrender the station-site on the mall or the four small reservations illegally oc- eupied by side-tracks, or the reservation at the intersection of Marylandand Virginia avenues which Attorney Riddle has said is occupied only by virtue of squatter sovereignty. If the ocenpation of any part of the public property is to be authorized and continued the value of these grants should be estimated by way of offset to the amount which the government might otherwise be expected to contribute for the re- moval of grade crossings. Senator Ingalls sev- eral years ago reckoned the value of the privi- Jeges upon the mail at halfa million doliars. The other public ground, legally or illegally used, is of great value. What the government gives to the road should be considered in ascer- taining how much the government should con- tribute towards the removal of grade cross- ings. And this fact makes it essential that the questions of a change of station-site, removal of grade-crossings and the concessions, includ- ing the four reservations, asked by the Atkin- son-MePherson bill, should be disposed of at one time and by the same piece of Segislation. In this way only can all the parties receive fair play. To give to the road what it asks under the Atkinson- McPherson bill without amendment would be to present to itfor nothing what should be a partof the consideration fur the removal of grade-crossings and making other improve- ments. If Congrees in the end should refuse the request of the capital that its mall be freed from railroad tracks and should confirm the road’s occupation of the reservations illegally cecupied, the concessions to the road would be worth far more than the city’s share of the cost of removing the grade-crossings, and at the very least the road should in that event bear every cent of this expense. The Balti- more and Ohio will evidently be required to compensate the public by the removal of many grade-crossings and other improvements for the benefits which it seeks. The same policy should be applied to the Baltimore and Poto- mac. IfCongress will not exercise against the roads its power to compel, it should at le: the capacity of local municipal legislature, Tepresent in negotiation the city rather than the railroads, and secure from the latter by an exchange of concessions everything for the public benefit that a shrewd business man would in a similar situation be able to obtain, —_—— + = The Senate judiciary committee seem to know just how to frame a law to open the orig- inal package before it can be sold in prohibi- tion and license states. Their bill subjecting imported liquors to the provisions of the laws of the several states is strongly in point. The constitutional inter-state commerce provision does not execute itself, but is to be executed only by specific lawa. The theory of our system is that the state law is not to contravene the constitutional provision. But a national law mey limit or define the bearing of the provi- sion. The following sentence, taken from the full opinion of the Supreme Court, makes it elear that such action of Congress as is pro- posed would be constitutional: “We hold that im the absence of Congressional permission to do so the state had uo power to interfere by seizure or any other action in prohibition of importation and sale by the foreign or non- resident importer.” he inter-state commerce Jaw bas nothing to do with the matter. —— - The City of Brotherly Love in the excess of ite medical and humanitarian zeal is likely to go too far.
